We’re seeing a Tesco-branded Windows 8.1 slate debut right before Black Friday, called Connect and priced at £99. That’s roughly $155, but there’s no point in making purchase plans stateside. This thing, like the Hudl and Hudl 2, is a UK exclusive.More specifically, a Tesco exclusive, with the 7 incher unlikely to branch out to other retailers anytime soon. And yes, $155 is affordable on British shores.

With its low price and a prime spot next to the beans, Tesco's Hudl has sold over 750,000 units since launch.While plans to also enter the smartphone racket have been put on hold, today Tesco's spilled all the details on its second-gen slate: the Hudl2.The Hudl2 shares a similar design with its predecessor, but is a little bit bigger. However, the bezels are vastly smaller, giving it a more premium look.

Tesco has, as expected, entered the tablet marked with a device called Hudl, that has a 7-inch screen with 1440 x 900 pixels screen, 1.5GHz quad-core chip, Wi-Fi connectivity, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS and 16GB of expandable strage.Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean is running the show, with few Tesco’s apps singing on top. Hudl will be available in four colors (black, blue, red and purple) from September 30th and will retail at £119.
